ETA: I pulled the steering wheel mounted remote control out as more bother than it was worth. It's just as simple to touch the front of the radio as to figure out the tiny multi-function buttons on a remote that gets in the way of steering.
I priced swapping out the "hobby wood" for copper plates (that stuff is expensive and heavy!) or copper plate over clear plastic (lit with blue LED's from inside) but have put that project off for so many others.

Where did you purchase the trim kit from?
